(7,807 posts)3. Steele crossed the line when he apologized to Rush Limbaugh
for saying he was not the voice of the rethug party.
Any rethug who seems to think the 1990s and the Bush II era were just fine - but it's chumpy who crosses the line - don't seem to get it. This current maladministration is the logical result of their policies since Goldwater, not an aberration.
I include Steele in those who don't understand just when it was that they crossed that line. It wasn't the past 3 years.

Nawww...the GOP still stands for that, Mikey!
